AI-analyzed exploit summary This repository contains an auto-generated stub module for CVE-2026-11367, a directory traversal vulnerability in the PixMagix WordPress Image Editor plugin (versions ≤1.7.2). The code includes metadata and a placeholder `run()` method but lacks functional exploit logic, referencing only vulnerability details and WordPress plugin code paths.

Description

The PixMagix – WordPress Image Editor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.2 via the move_image_on_server function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to write files with attacker-controlled content to arbitrary locations on the server. The unsanitized 'layers[].id' parameter is concatenated into a filesystem path and passed to PHP's copy() function, allowing traversal sequences (e.g. '../../') to escape the intended upload directory and write attacker-supplied file contents to arbitrary paths accessible by the web server process. The save_template REST endpoint is gated by the create_projects permission (edit_pixmagix + upload_files), which Author-level users hold by default after plugin activation, making this exploitable by any Author on sites running PixMagix.
